Race Types:
Criterium Race
A Criterium or Crit race will be held on a short course consisting of racers riding

free laps may be awarded during the race up to 8km remaining in the race. All free
lap rules are subject to the discretion of the presiding officials.
Road Race (with special provisions for Pro Men’s race in Willow Springs, IL)
A Road Race or circuit race will be held on a longer open road course varying in
length. The race could consist of one lap of a larger distance or multiple laps of a
smaller distance. The first rider across the finish line will be determined the
winner. All of the road races in PSCS will be run on a distance limit.
1. Neutral support by SRAM, who may be permitted onto the finish criterium
at the discretion of the Chief Referee. No free laps on main course.
2. The road race will be conducted according to the rule of the road and
